I´ve not been reading a lot about SEO, so all these words (SERP, Allinanchor and you name it) makes me confused. I´ve been able to learn about some of them but it would be nice if someone had a list somewhere with explanations for every SEO word.
Google has a page that explains the advanced search operators (allintitle, allinurl, etc...) here: Advanced Search Operators
I don't have a list of EVERY seo word I don't think, but maybe my seo lingo category will help. www.seo-scoop.com/category_blogs.cfm?category=SEO-Lingo
Nice handy and concise resource, dazzlin... I've just added a link to that page at the Band of Gonzos forum: a great place to send people for such questions.
These are the main ones I think SEO= Search Engine Optimization SEM= Search Engine Marketing SERP= Search Engine Results Page PPC= Pay Per Click PFI= Pay for Inclusion CPA= Cost Per Acquisition CPL = Cost Per Lead CPC=Cost per Click CSS= Cascading Style Sheets SSI= Server Side Includes FFA Links- Free For All Links PFI = Pay For Inclusion CTR = ClickThrough Rate ODP = Open directory project DMOZ = opn directory project ACPC = Average cost per click MCPC = Max cost per click MNCPC = Minimum cost per click B2B = Business to Business B2C = Business to Consumer DR = Date Range CPM = Cost per 1000 impressions DTC = Direct to consumer KW = Keyword -KW = Negative Keyword ISP = Internet service provider PPL = Pay per lead PL = Paid for links ROI = Return on investment ROAS = Return on advertiser Spending FP = Front Page DW = Dreamweaver IBL= Inbound links WYSIWYG = What You See Is What You Get
You left out "ROFIAWFGTUAYTDAAA" = "Rolling On Floor In Agony Waiting For Google To Update And Yahoo To Do Anything At All"... Isn't that one the singlemost inportant SEO term?
I didn't know any of them at all. Sometimes I did a search for different phrases just to understand what they were. Dave
